Wind Turbine Design

The best way to learn more about the science behind electrical generating wind turbines is to build some small models and start doing some experiments. Building and testing your very own electrical generating turbine is an exciting project that includes a great deal of complicated science and math! Engineers, meteorologists and scientists have been working on wind energy for millennia and they are still learning new things all the time. So why not dive in and try your hand a building a wind turbine!
